2017 Draft......A+ for CMC


Recommended Posts

Couldn’t have asked for the dominoes to fall any better that first round.

As a bonus the Saints got whamboozled out of drafting Patrick Mahomes just after us. Lattimore is nice but a cornerback isn’t a once in a generation franchise game changer like Mahomes would have been.

That would have seriously BLOWN!  I don't mind KC getting a good quarterback but can you imagine if the Saints nabbed Mahomes......kill me now.

Leonard Fournette : C+  Not saying he is going to turn into being a terrible draft pick but I am glad it ended up being McCaffery for us.  For how we use him, we defiantly got the better guy between the two.  

LF has been somewhat of a headcase, but I will say it's hard to run the ball when you have 8 stacking the box because your alcoholic QB throws like an old woman.

That would have sucked so fuging bad. Imagine Brees to Mahomes. That’s like Favre to Rodgers but even better.

Fournette is a good player but he’s had the chips stacked against him. Hard taking that kind of punishment especially when every defense knows you’re gonna run the poo out of the ball because your QB sucks. Wonder if Foles will bring his philly magic to the Jags. If he does you could see that offense really open up and they could be back in the playoffs this year.

I was hard for LF like I was for Gurley before him, Derrick Henry before him so forth and so on...

Really glad we got Christian.  He's the real deal.  

Thats why my opinions are free and not valuable to a NFL front office.

    • Its completely and utterly bootlicking at this point.  If you cannot acknowledge that using 3 picks on a rb with a torn acl in the 2nd round isnt a bad pick then you simply havent a clue about football.  Sorry man it is what it is.  And its insanely laughable you are trying to strawman this argument using other players.  And what fuging facts are you bringing that is justifing morgan using 3 goddamn picks on him?  I cannot wait to hear that.
    • Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.
